I went to the unemployment office for the first time today, I did only just file for unemployment. My "case worker" was actually very nice and pretty cool. He kind of knew I had my act together so it was not a drawn out event. It turned out one of the employees there also went to Bronx Science and my case worker's son works at my old company, Viacom (still can't believe I was laid off!).
Looks like the job market is opening up, so hopefully I find something soon. Good luck to everyone else looking for a new job!

- Martian Notifier Smartwatch - I received a unit and have review up soon
- Flygrip - product you attach to your phone to prevent you from dropping it
- phorus - speakers & music products
- Lenovo's new "yoga" line - flexible tablets and laptops
